Really Nice '69 #s 427/390hp Corvette

[scuncio]

One of the best color combos out there. Sold new in Nampa, Idaho and has the look of a car that has lived in a friendly climate its entire life.

Sidepipes!

Good looking car and color combo and not too nice that you would feel bad taking out on sunny weekends. Would like it even better as black with that red interior. Only thing that I noticed was no mention of transmission stamping (partial VIN or assembly date) just the casting numbers, so not sure if that's original. Overall seems like a well documented car that will make someone happy.

Ridiculous repop air cleaner lid.

Good lord . . . . that color combo! I remember when we used to refer to these gaudy(?) red interiors as “bleeders” but they’ve always been my favorite!

What’s the give away that they were added other then the lack of paper proving factory installed. Curious since we were considering looking at the car. Local to me.....

The rear exhaust panel looks totally glassed it. In 1969 under exhaust systems had a different rear exhaust panel and different quarter panels than a car with side pipes. In the pictures it looks than when they put on the side pipes instead of buying the correct quater panels and rear exhaust panels they left the original ones on and fiberglassed in the exhaust cut outs on the both panels along with the seam for the rear exhaust panel and the quarter panels.

Without looking at the birdcage and documentation... I was merely reading the description of the auction gents

I would, however, like to see a clearer close up of that tag show red leather!
